Entitled to claim benefit of section 80C on this re-invested interest.
The amount of interest re-invested will satisfy the test of having been paid out of income chargeable to tax to get the NSC and so will be entitled to deduction under section 80C.
>> The interest accrued every year is to be included in your taxable income.
